We started the day off at a cafe for breakfast, one of the Australians living in our apartment block is a chef there (getting paid US$3.50 an hour!), and made us a "proper" flat white, which was the best coffee we'd had since we left home.
After that, off to the bus station to arrange our tickets for tomorrow, then on to Museo Pumapungo, a museum with a mix of contemporary art, displays representing the many ethnic groups of Ecuador, and old Inca ruins. Also by the ruins was an aviary with a number of different birds native to Ecuador, but we felt sorry for the toucans, macaws and eagles that were stuck there and not able to fly away.
We finished the day sitting at a bar by the river, enjoying the great weather and the view - once again we can see the appeal of Cuenca, we just didn't have the best introduction to the place.
